It really reminds me of the 90's Indians line up loaded with guys like Thome, Ramirez, Alomar, etc.

Oh for sure. I get the impression that TImmy really likes it here, Now that might change 5 years down teh road, and we might not want him in 5 years... but I see a LONG time with this core line up.

This. I think TA is the first to run out of control, and it is like 2024 or something ridiculous like that.

I know a lot of people think Ricky is a bafoon, but what if (now stick with me here) he was trying to generate runs when he had a team full of awful hitters, and now that he has a team full of guys who kill the ball, he let's them play for the big inning. Crazy, right?

FG at 99%, 4th best AL playoff odds: giving us a 49.1% chance at winning the division, 12.9% at making the WS, and 5.8% at the WS. BRef at 98.9%, 5th best AL playoff odds: giving us a 30.4% chance at winning the division, 6.4% at making the WS, and 1.6% at the WS.

I am also going to guess that if the draft is moving this far back, that there is zero chance the international signing day will be July 2 either.

If it lasts for a period of years, it is no longer luck, and there is another factor that is making this possible. Think of Mark Buehrle and his fielding helping his stats go WAY past his advanced stats.

The title alone is worth the link.

I am going to say it here too. 449 is WAY too short on that distance. Look how far above the 411 sign that hit and tell me that wasn’t going 475 or more.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN YOUR FIRST PLACE CHICAGO WHITE SOX!!!

Come back after this inning.

The twins have absolutely crapped the bed in this one.

If you had told me before the season that Matt Foster would be a key guy in pen, I would have assumed a lot of things went really badly.

Did he get that beard at a ZZ Top concert?

His life story is even better. https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/zeke-bonura/

Seems really short. It was a line drive that was WAY over the 411 sign.

Damn. Tbat ball needed a Canadian passport.

this. They are going to have to learn on the job.

100 on the black.

Turned 1st and third into an out.

Ron, buy that man a dip!
